Hot Girls Needing Confirmation

Los Angeles is known for its beautiful women. And though the masses have been plucked, sucked and tucked into utter perfection, insecurity still reigns. Whether from studio rejection, or a self absorbed bartender boyfriend who needs the validation from his fellow insecure cocktail waitresses, even the most darling girls only feel pretty when they go back to their hometowns.

For those uber-competitive beauties striving for validation, they can enter themselves into The Hot Quest. She must force a jubilant, smiling face for a photo (at least they still look at that) and please the masses by adding body shots, so total strangers can ogle her at her expense. What's kind of gross, is that you can see how many clicks each photo gets. I noticed that the more naked a girl is, the more clicks it receives. I think we all know what the boys are doing with those photos. The site kind of feels like Halloween: yet another occasion when scantily clad girls seem desperate for attention, and men can take advantage of their insecurities and enjoy the spectacle, free of charge.

If the girl scores enough votes on the site, she will be crowned "Hottest Girl on Earth" or, as Thrillist puts it: "The Hottest Girl On Earth Who Still Needs Affirmation From the Lonely Geeks of The Internet."

Photobooth Pro - Giving the finger to vanity



Vanity doesn't only handicap those made to walk the red carpet. At parties where people know there will be press or at least shutterbug friends who are a little too Facebook-happy, they fret over how they look. So much so, that even with an open bar (!) it can ruin their evening.
How many times have you heard:

"Um, can you take another one? I look fat here."

"Um, can I look at the pic on your camera? If I don't like it you HAVE to delete it."

"Um, please don't tag me on Facebook."

"Um, that was my bad side."

"Um, hold on hold on hold on...I wasn't ready."

"Um, can we take a few, just in case?"

It always starts with  an "Um."

Photobooth Pro allows people to toss inhibitions aside and give the finger to vanity. A collection of RIDONCULOUS hats, boas and shades will assure the most vain and insecure that they can just calm the hell down and have a good time in the spacious photo booth.

To top it off, every person gets a copy of the photos right there on site, so if necessary, they can stare at themselves all night without being locked in the bathroom. What's more, is that online photos are available just days later, so they can crop, recolor, and Photoshop the photos into ("more realistic") versions of themselves before posting to Facebook.
